<VV> AntiVirus Re: Unexplained URL - NO CORVAIR

[Bruce Schug]

Or, if you were using a Mac, you could just not worry about it :-)

(No need to tell me there are some viruses that attack Macs. I know

had a problem. Maybe some day I'll buy some, just to be safe. None of  
these recent e-mails caused me any problems.)
